Dealing with Endo Pain Flare and Fertility Issues

In the middle of a terrible endo pain flare right now šŸ˜£ Just started my period and my pain levels are excruciating as ever. I had trouble sleeping last night because of it. Iā€™m using my Ovira, heating pad, and pain meds. And to add to the fun, Iā€™m constipated and the pain makes it feel impossible to have a bowel movement. Iā€™m quite sure I have bowel endo. Ugh. I know it wonā€™t last foreverā€¦it will eventually pass once I get past this first part of my cycle. But Iā€™ve come off the pill to try to conceive and Iā€™m questioning if I need to go back on the pill, have surgery to figure out whatā€™s going on and handle this pain, THEN try to conceive. Iā€™m 35 so I know I donā€™t have tons of time. But I canā€™t possibly imagine, even if I was able to get pregnant soon, living with this pain and having a child to take care of. Anyone been in anything like my situation? Please help! Thank you! šŸ«¶

Omg and pelvic PT! How could I forget! That was a GAME CHANGER.

Surgery, and changing what I ate and drank,were the best things I did for my pain. I sure hope youā€™ll find a way to feel better soon! Trust your instincts with which path to take. ā¤ļø

I just tried Cbd today, and it helped significantly. I still feel the area of pain but it's not nagging pain like usual. I was shocked!

Thank you! ā¤ļø I did get past it. Iā€™ve had very minimal to no pain in the past couple of days. And Iā€™ve booked an appointment with a new doctor for next Tuesday.
